54 dollars in two hours. Mostly sweetheart A flute, rosewood.
I think the recession may be ending.
Glad you had a good day busking. That said, we are nowhere near the bottom, unfortunately.

Jim, did you wear your rags and carry that cardboard “Need Help!” sign that you mentioned using in the past? In that case it is hard to know whether the folk liked your music or just wanted to help. $54 in two hours isn’t bad money for a retired professor of philosophy. Can you reveal what tune made the cup tinkle? Let me guess that it was Stephen Foster’s “Hard Times Come Again No More”.
No, no sign. Just dark glasses and the red-tipped white cane.
Same as always. But that’s brought in maybe 27 dollars
in three hours for the last few months.
By the way, I miscounted. I made 56 dollars, not 54.
Economists, take note!
I played Hardiman the Fiddler a good deal. Lovely tune.
Jigs and reels, people do seem to like them.
Wandering Whistler has Hardiman’s Fancy. Is that the same tune as Hardiman the Fiddler?
Whoops! No, “Fancy” is Joe Derrane’s, isn’t it?

Charley Harris. I saw him on the TG4 awards recently. Must get to see more of him. Lots of Joe Cooley in his music woudn’t you say?
